| | Analog stick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Analog sticks are normally intended to be used with the players' thumbs. | | | In video games, an analog stick is often used to move some game object, usually the protagonist. | | | On modern game controllers, the position of the first stick is where the left thumb usually rests, usually to the upper left of D-pad. |

| | DVD Talk Forum - When you play Soul Calibur (DC), do you use the analog stick or the D-pad? |
| | The GCN stick should work though as it has a nice rubber top and my thumb doesn't fly of it, and the grooves around the stick make it easy to precisely hit one of the eight "digital" directions. | | | Now most games are 3D so the analog stick is necessary. | | | I started out using the analog stick because it seemed I could move my character easier. |

| | DVD Talk Forum - Analog stick Vs Dpad |
| | I can make do using the stick when used for moving or looking, but when it needs to be percise, say for aiming, i suck and i hate it. | | | i have to use both sticks to aim, and becuase of it, i get hit like 3 times before i can shoot the target. | | | Maybe you should try getting a game like Super Monkey Ball, if that doesn't get you used to using an analog stick, I don't know what will. |

| | Gamasutra - Features - "First-Person Control Design for Dual Analog Stick Controllers" |
| | If the player is peeking around the corner and presses forward on the control stick, we pull the player character's body straight in line with the head's position, and the player can carry on as normal. | | | As such, control should not be the main challenge for the player, this should be the game itself. | | | In time, perhaps we will no longer have to play games where the only control available to the player is changing the sensitivity of the control stick. |

| | Nintendophiles Forums - A great Idea. |
| | That would mean that people would have to stretch their thumbs over onto the screen, while trying to grip the DS...or they could just fiddle with the fake stick while holding the DS in one hand, which isn't very good and kinda defeats the purpose of the analog stick bing used for comfort. | | | Also, people want an analog stick to grip, you need to be able to feel it, having a flat version isn't going to cut it. | | | And when you take your thumb off the analog it springs back into place, like other analogs. |

| | GamingWorld X - Rise to Honor Review |
| | Rather than pushing the X or O button to attack, you instead move the right analog stick in the direction of your enemy. | | | Using the right analog stick for attacks just doesn’t feel right, and as a player, you’re never really allowed to control your attacks properly. | | | That burning question aside, Rise to Honor does some interesting things cinematically, but the gameplay side of the equation never quite seems to be able to catch up. |

| | Using the analog stick, players will maneuver through a fully 3D world, numerous puzzles, epic battles and highly detailed environments. | | | Also, the player can set four items or abilities to the “C” stick on the Gamecube’s controller so pressing in any direction readies the item or effect and pressing the “A” button uses it. | | | Tricky the triceratops will also factor into game play as Fox will have a set of commands (accessed by pressing the “C” stick in like a button) that will order him to perform various duties. |
